The final recording is exhausting enough: Ignoring all the structural repeats in the score, Gould brought the "Goldbergs" in at just over 21966 minutes, while performances that adopt more conventional tempos and observe all the repeats can last up to 90.
|
|
Onstage, the band could execute virtuosic live versions of songs with deliberately fluctuating tempos, tricky stop-start guitar patterns, melodies that jumped around, and close harmonies and ping-ponging vocal counterpoint among Mr. Longstreth, Ms. Coffman and a second female vocalist.
|
|
The frequent coordination problems might have been a fluke, but Mr. Meister also imposed ill-advised tempos including a wet-blanket andante in "Là ci darem la mano" that all but suffocated this tender duet between Don Giovanni and Zerlina.
|

If, say, in the course of a summer festival, a pianist plays a familiar quintet with a new set of partners, she can save the group's interpretive markings in a neatly archived file without having to erase her usual dynamics and tempos.
|

|
Every phrase of this riveting Passion sounds as if it has been thought through from scratch, whether in the elaborate way in which Mr. Jacobs varies the number of singers in his choirs, or in the ebb and flow of his tempos.
|
|
At first his efforts to play stride piano — a style, popularized by pianists like James P. Johnson and Fats Waller, that requires a long reach with the left hand and a wide range of tempos — fell flat because his hands were too small.
|
|
Opetaia led the charge and I think we took the lead from him in terms of the rhythms and tempos and harmonies that really make it sound like it's from that part of the world and then you build from there and that's the fun.
|
|
They've streamlined their already stripped-down, meaty black metallicized doom/punk sound even further, and delivered a whopper of an album that satisfies my most primal urges for big, ugly riffs, and spices it up with grimy punk tempos and slabs of enthralling blackened doom.
|
|
And Mr. Levine's tempos sometimes felt hurried, as in the Act II showdown between Osmin and Blondchen, the English servant girl who had been gifted to him by the Pasha but who read him the riot act when he attempted to make sexual advances.
|
|
They discussed tempos ("I was schlepping!" he said, apologizing for a spot where he felt he had gone too slowly); worked to shape a few key phrases; and discussed subtly changing the blocking at one tricky point so the singers could see him better.
|
|
So what I would do, for two months before we'd even go to the Tour de France, I would write out little canvas pieces, 'I know I'm going to need this, I know I'm going to need that,' but I wouldn't set the tempos.
|

Chris Brown of the Bills' official site made a lengthy to-do list for Lynn to succeed where Roman failed: Let playmakers make plays, maximize quarterback Tyrod Taylor, achieve balance on an offense that currently ranks last in pass attempts, and run the offense at different tempos.
|
|
However, I got to hear some of the old performances and the way in which we play on Jane Doe is so much different than the way that we play now—tempos, feel, the way Ben [Koller] sets up his drums—it's like night and day.

Sure, members of the Reserve and Guard, deploying at unprecedented operational tempos (that show no sign of decreasing, regardless of "war is over" rhetoric), realize they may not get all the best new stuff, and may not get all the benefits of their active-duty comrades.
|
|
Over the years, in addition to perfecting a vicious live show, the hardworking quintet developed a unique style of progressive-yet-propulsive punk-inflected metallic hardcore that marries jumpy tempos, driving riffs, sick guitar solos, and muscular technicality, while experimenting with building songs around Latin rhythms.
|
|
The personnel in McVay's offense rarely changes (one running back, one tight end and three receivers are the norm), but the system, aside from an expansive playbook, features loads of tempos, cadences and no-huddle elements, in which just a word or two signifies a play.
|
|
What so puzzles and enchants is that this is theoretically conventional rock band music — assembled with spareness, using the minimal ingredients of guitar, drums, and so on, played at mostly brisk tempos — that, thanks to Yanya's ear for where to incorporate empty space, plays like immersive soundscape.
|

Over 11 albums and scores of EPs and mixtapes — all of which he wrote, performed, and produced himself — he's honed an artistic voice that is thoroughly soulful and warm, with plenty of horns and live instruments, and an expansive approach to rhythm that uses varied time signatures and tempos.
|

At a time when punk rock was becoming increasingly focused on razor-sharp precision, as skate-punk bands put a premium on faster tempos and cleaner production, Alkaline Trio served as a reminder that the genre is at its best when it doesn't get too fussy about the particulars.
|
|
This melancholia is the new dream-pop, and Post Malone has found like-minded musical collaborators — Louis Bell foremost among them, and also Frank Dukes, who offers a more nuanced take on the sound — partial to gloomy tempos and synths that seep into every available corner of a track.

S.C.W. Symphonies No. 3 and 4; San Francisco Symphony; Michael Tilson Thomas, conductor (SFS Media) The grand, glorious chaos of Ives's Fourth Symphony — with its mad layering of different tempos, its discontinuities, its need for two conductors merely to keep the whole thing together — has rarely had this clarity.

The band's uniquely harsh vocals, lurching, industrial-influenced tempos, air of gothic excess, and overall destructive, Satanic atmosphere set them apart from their scant contemporaries like Venom, Bathory, and Sodom, as did their immediate willingness to experiment, to twist and tease out the potential in what "heavy metal" could ultimately be.

"All That x Alien Boy," a combination of songs off his first EP, Alien Boy, is a sort of electronic rap ballad hybrid that rapidly shifts tempos and beats, and also features our lead man prancing atop a white horse, speeding through the desert on a pocket rocket, and hoisting a bazooka.
|

The young five-piece has just released its sophomore full-length, At This Great Depth, following their 2015 debut with a semi-eponymous EP. Soothsayer's take on doom is epic and unorthodox, borrowing more influence from atmospheric black metal's triumphantly climbing scales and melodic death metal's pointed harmonies than traditional doom's passive tempos.
|
|
Other virtues here include an avoidance of the usual slow tempos that bog down most "Swan Lakes" (with one intermission, this production runs at two hours and a quarter) and a moderately pretty evocation of the medieval Age of Chivalry that the ballet's makers had in mind (scenery and costumes by Benjamin Tyrrell).
|

" The set included two songs from the new album that rev up to the punky, speed-metal tempos of 230s Metallica: "Hardwired," with a chorus delivering unbridled pessimism in four-letter words, and "Moth Into Flame," a tirade at the corrosive effects of fame and social media: "Infamy, all for publicity/Destruction going viral.
|

They expertly execute speed metal's core tenets—heavy metal, thrash, even They simply show up, plug in, and shred—echoing the loose, bare-bones approach of their forebears down to their song titles ("Night Slasher" is a particularly sick ripper), leather-clad aesthetic, reckless tempos, and vocalist Dimi's high-pitched squeals and unhinged laughter.
|

With the tempos often above 300 BPM, each track blasts into your face with the compressed mania of a ringtone, and the structure of the original composition speeds by with the intensity of a knotty prog song, turning on a dime through verses and choruses and little bridges that blur into each other seconds apart.
|

Snowball headbanged to the beat on his own To test whether Snowball could incorporate a variety of body parts when music played, a trait only humans had ever exhibited, the team filmed him as he boogied to two seminal '80s standards with different tempos: "Another One Bites the Dust" and "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun," each played three times.

Every single review of Japandroids' new album Near to the Wild Heart of Life will undoubtedly kill a few paragraphs reiterating what you already know from the interviews: the production values are higher, the tempos are slower, there's more breathing room for everything that would otherwise be heard as narcing on the past proceedings; acoustic guitars, synths, girlfriends.

Now, the initially professionally casual Zenkers have directed their tight circle off associates to produce a A Decade Ilian Tape compilation, an LP paced trip through the various, interconnected sounds and tempos within their immediate universe, ranging from Roger23's prickly electronica, panel banging techno from Rupcy and something approaching fucked up filter house from Argentinian producer Andres Zacco.
|
|
To accentuate the prettiness on the current album, they slow down the tempos, sing more breathily, foreground the painstakingly strummed or plucked acoustic riffs, and generally dilute each element until they attenuate the wires running through the machine, and the whole thing unravels into a pile of gears,poles,snapped strings, and smaller contraptions themselves unraveling.

There are moments elsewhere on the record, like "The Curse of Eternal Life" and "Empty Comforts" that up the tempos, relatively speaking, pushing their industrial clatter into territories that begin to approach techno, or hardcore—putting them in a realm that's not super far from those blistered Industrial Strength releases that razed clubs with Pantera samples.
|

Some of them, after a decade of war, in command of an array of fire support unmatched by any military in the world, adopted cautious tempos and spoke to their troops in knowing euphemisms, including "tactical patience," a concept at odds with the aggressive ethos of infantry units but in line with an understanding that the plan was flawed.

On TLOP, Kanye really does stitch disparate sounds and tempos and rhythms together and they are just as exquisite as Kim's bachelorette Balmain, each fitted to the song that wears it, each one pearlescent and lush and so full of detailed and intricate beatwork that you want to really examine it up close on good speakers.

As he rehearsed for the winter season, he mused on all he has been learning while making the transition from symphony orchestra to ballet conductor: how to choose tempos that suit the dancers, how to burnish the playing with fewer rehearsals than many symphony or opera orchestras typically get, how to watch the dancers and be flexible enough to stay with them.
|

The live sound of the band amounted to an atmosphere: Simon Gallup's rugged, grip-tape bass lines, high up in the mix; the pallid beams of Roger O'Donnell's keyboard melodies; Mr. Smith's vocal wail and bright, watery guitar tone; the drummer Jason Cooper's thump at medium tempos; the extra layer of echo, viscosity and whoosh from the lead guitarist, Reeves Gabrels.
|
|
While the whiplash-inducing genre—marked by manic tempos ranging from 180-220 BPM, distorted bass drums, and shrieking synths—is hard to come by in the US clubbing scene, a particularly fanatical promoter named "Justin Bailey" (AKA Seva Granik, the mastermind behind SHADE) will be throwing a gabber party called "Zero Chill" in Brooklyn on April 1 as a winking tribute to its cultish lineage.

The name Husky Loops may sound like some off-brand bodybuilding cereal, but they're actually a gripping new rock 'n' roll band from the UK. Big on sharp, swerving riffs and unconventional arrangements, Husky Loops have a sound that's hard to pin down, but that kind of experimentation is the art-rockers' M.O. Taking guitar cues from similarly eclectic dance punks like Death From Above 1979, Husky Loops switch up their tempos a dime.

The music is Maurice Ravel's Piano Concerto for the Left Hand in D (1929-30), which was commissioned by Paul Wittgenstein, a pianist (and the philosopher's brother) who lost his right hand in World War I. The hands on the screens belong to the pianists Louis Lortie and Jean-Efflam Bavouzet, who each performed the concerto with an orchestra, using scores with tempos altered by Mr. Sala slowing or accelerating different parts.
